John 14

Jesus Comforts His Disciples

1“1Do not let your heart be troubled; 2believe in God, believe also in Me. 2In My Father’s house are many 3rooms; if that were not so, 4I would have told you, because 5I am going there to prepare a place for you. 3And if I go and prepare a place for you, 6I am coming again and will take you to Myself, so that 7where I am, there you also will be. 4And you know the way where I am going.” 58Thomas said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going; how do we know the way?” 6Jesus said to him, “I am 9the way, and 10the truth, and 11the life; no one comes to the Father except through Me.

Oneness with the Father

712If you 13had known Me, you would have known My Father also; from now on you 14know Him, and have 15seen Him.”

816Philip said to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us.” 9Jesus said to him, “Have I been with 17you for so long a time, and yet 18you have not come to know Me, Philip? 19The one who has seen Me has seen the Father; how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10Do you not believe that 20I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me? 21The words that I say to you I do not speak on My own, but the Father, as He remains in Me, does His works. 11Believe Me that 22I am in the Father and the Father is in Me; otherwise 23believe because of the works themselves. 12Truly, truly I say to you, the one who believes in Me, the works that I do, he will do also; and 24greater works than these he will do; because 25I am going to the Father. 13And 26whatever you ask in My name, this I will do, so that 27the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14If you ask Me anything 28in My name, I will do it.

15“29If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.

The Holy Spirit

16I will ask the Father, and He will give you another 3031Helper, so that He may be with you forever; 17the Helper is 32the Spirit of truth, 33whom the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him; but you know Him because He remains with you and will be in you.

18“I will not leave you as orphans; 34I am coming to you. 193536After a little while, 37the world no longer is going to see Me, but you are going to see Me; 38because I live, you also will live. 2039On that day you will know that 40I am in My Father, and you are in Me, and I in you. 2141The one who has My commandments and keeps them is the one who loves Me; and 42the one who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and will 43reveal Myself to him.” 2244Judas (not Iscariot) said to Him, “Lord, what has happened 45that You are going to reveal Yourself to us and not to the world?” 23Jesus answered and said to him, “46If anyone loves Me, he will 47follow My word; and 48My Father will love him, and We 49will come to him and make Our dwelling with him. 24The one who does not love Me 50does not follow My words; and 51the word which you hear is not Mine, but the Father’s who sent Me.

25“These things I have spoken to you while remaining with you. 26But the 52Helper, the Holy Spirit 53whom the Father will send in My name, 54He will teach you all things, and 55remind you of all that I said to you. 2756Peace I leave you, My peace I give you; not as the world gives, do I give to you. 5758Do not let your hearts be troubled, nor 59fearful. 2860You heard that I said to you, ‘I am going away, and 61I am coming to you.’ If you loved Me, you would have rejoiced 62because 63I am going to the Father, for 64the Father is greater than I. 29And now 65I have told you before it happens, so that when it happens, you may believe. 30I will not speak much more with you, for 66the ruler of the world is coming, and he has 67nothing in regard to Me, 31but so that the world may know that I love the Father, 68I do exactly as 69the Father commanded Me. Get up, 70let’s go from here.
